i've had this one (stock photo) for about six months.

it looked just like that at the start and now is patched in indigo-stained darkness. the staining doesn't get into the creasing. i'll try to get a picture later. when it came, the glue on it was still sticky, but i scraped a lot of the excess out and anything i didn't scrape out of the seams got lint stuck to it. i guess that's not great, but otherwise, the construction seems high quality and it was relatively inexpensive.

I switch between an MA+ "petrol" bison cardcase and an Entermodal cardcase. The Entermodal is sturdy - a really high quality tank, but it is pretty bulky (though nothing compared to those crazy Red Moon style wallets). The MA+ is extremely thin and elegant. Really, it's leather origami with a small strip of silver (which, incidentally, broke, and I need to take it to a silversmith, still.)

I use a handmade sharkskin billfold by a local guy named Greg Everett. It's built pretty tough and has held up nicely over the past couple of years. I also like the kangaroo leather laces that he put on the edges.

I may need a CDG wallet because the zip fastening and the internal coin pouch is very useful to me.
But I'm not sure about the quality.
